The School of Wizards is exactly what you’d expect from a well-executed franchise room — a solid, immersive experience designed to be easily replicated across different locations. While that sometimes means sacrificing a bit of originality or local flavor, it does deliver on consistency, quality, and fun.

The room is crafted to be engaging and team-oriented, with puzzles that rely heavily on communication and collaboration. Everyone had a role to play, which made the experience feel inclusive. The set design is polished, with detailed environments that clearly reflect the theme, and the storyline is well-integrated throughout the game. You’re not just solving puzzles — you’re progressing through a narrative.

Some of the puzzles make creative use of technology. These tech-driven moments helped elevate the atmosphere and gave the game a more modern and magical twist.

That said, you can tell the room was built with scalability in mind. It has the structure and feel of something meant to be copied — and while that doesn’t take away from the enjoyment, it does mean you’ll find fewer surprises or unique touches than you might in a fully bespoke game.

All in all, The School of Wizards is a charming, family-friendly adventure that balances teamwork, immersion, and a hint of magic. It’s a great option whether you’re a die-hard fan of wizarding stories or simply in the mood for a lighthearted and well-produced escape room experience.
